West Virginia State Treasurer Riley Moore enthusiastically supporting Vice President nominee Vance – WV MetroNews
CHARLESTON, W.Va. — Former President Donald Trump has chosen Ohio Senator J.D. Vance as his running mate for the 2024 Presidential Election, and West Virginia State Treasurer Riley Moore is emphatically supporting him.
“J.D. Vance is somebody that can really speak to the working-class people of this country, particularly when we’re trying to pick up states like Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania,” Moore said. I think his story, his life story, resonates with a lot of working-class people of the United States.”
Vance, the 39-year-old from Middletown, Ohio, has a different path to a political career as most, as he began his post high school career in the United States Marine Corp, where he served from 2003-2007. Vance later went on to school at Ohio State University and Yale University.
Moore says it’s the life experience that makes Vance such a good candidate for vice president.
“It’s a very compelling story,” Moore said. “Some might say, ‘Well, he doesn’t have enough experience in government or something like that.’ His life experience, I think, has prepared himself for this position.”
In the past, Vance was on record critizing Trump, but Moore says Vance has come along.
“President Trump was a real shock to the system, which was great,” Moore said. ‘It took a little while for some people to kind of come to neutral and realize this is the direction that this country needs to head, and certainly J.D. (Vance) knows that.”
Moore also says he’s confident Trump will win the upcoming Presidential Election and thinks Vance will carry on the right movement.
“I think President Trump is clearly going to win this election, that’s my view on this,” Moore said. “We need to have somebody who is in a position to carry on this ‘America First’ movement, and I don’t think there’s a better person than Senator J.D. Vance.”
Vance officially accepted the Vice President nomination in his speech at the Republican National Convention Wednesday night.

Missed opportunity
West Virginia had a 6-0 lead in game three of its series against Kennesaw State, looking well on their way to a clean three-game sweep of the Owls.
Unfortunately for Steve Sabins, the bullpen imploded following another strong five-inning outing from the big lefty Maxx Yehl. Bryson Thacker, Carson Estridge, and David Perez combined to give up four runs on five hits over the final three innings, allowing the Owls to steal Sunday’s game.
The loss frustrated West Virginia fans and rightfully so, but there’s no need to panic. The name of the game is to continue winning the series. You do that, you’ll find yourself in a position to make the NCAA Tournament and earn a high seed. Obviously, you don’t want to blow the opportunity of a sweep, especially when you’re up 6-0, but it’s not a loss that is going to ruin their resume. Losing the series, on the other hand, would have.
What’s next for the Mountaineers?
No single mid-week game this week for West Virginia. Instead, they’ll play a quick two-game series against Radford at home beginning Tuesday. They’ll get one day of rest before opening up a three-game series at home against Columbia, which will be the final series of non-conference play. WVU will have a single mid-week game against Maryland on Tuesday, March 10th, before beginning Big 12 action on the road against Baylor.
